“It makes us nervous, we have a lot of young kids in the neighborhood, ” says Michael Mancine from his front stoop in Bridgeport. His daughters and their two cousins are playing catch on the sidewalk nearby.

“I am worried about my kids lives, if my kids is grabbed or taken and never come home, ” says Mary Kaye Bailey, whose boys are enjoying a cool summer evening beside her at Armour Park.

At Healy, CBS 2’s cameras spotted children playing on their own without supervision. The school is on the very same block where police say around lunchtime, the suspect tried twice last week to follow children and lure them inside his car.

“Hopefully we can all keep an eye out for this person and apprehend him, ” says Mancine.

Police have released a sketch, identifying the suspect as a white male, medium build, 20 to 23 years old. He’s between 5 feet 7 and 5 feet 9 inches tall with close cut blond hair.

Chicago police said the man was spotted driving a gray four-door vehicle with tinted windows on one occasion, and driving a black four-door vehicle with tinted windows on a second occasion.

“If anybody approaches you go the other way, never talk to adults especially strangers, ” says Valencia Burney of Bridgeprot, a mother of two.

“If some does approach you all my kids have phones believe it or not and if something happens I have them call 911, ” adds Bailey.

They’re modern parents are also longing for a different time.

“Used to be we could walk to the park and trust them to go to the park but that’s not the case anymore, ” says Mancine.
